Our Global Capacity

SNF (UK) Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of the parent company, SNF Floerger, is the world’s leading manufacturer of water soluble polymers.

These water soluble polymers are used in drinking water production, wastewater treatment, enhanced oil recovery, mining, paper, agriculture, textile and cosmetics. SNF has customers in over 130 countries.

A leader in manufacturing and processing water-soluble polymers, SNF has developed a range of more than 1000 products that help to preserve our natural resources, encourage recycling and improve efficiencies of industrial processes. Our polymers have several complementary functionalities: flocculation, which enables solids to be separated from liquids, viscosification and friction reduction.

SNF’s head office is based in the Rhône-Alpes region in France, but the group now has a strong, longstanding presence on every continent. With 23 factories in Europe, Asia, Australia and America, we have the largest polyacrylamide production capacity in the world.

51 subsidiaries located in more than 40 countries in 3 major economic areas (the Americas, Europe and Asia) enable us to sell our products in 130 countries across every sector of the economy.

Located as close as possible to our clients, SNF provides a globally unparalleled security of supply of polymers

Ever since SNF was first established, we have been seeking to offer our clients the broadest range of polymers and related services in the market. We also provide supply, quality and price levels that enable them to meet their performance targets.

In order to achieve this, we have developed a long-term strategy focused on innovation and investment. SNF maintains a high level of R&D expenditure alongside constant investment in improving and expanding its production sites.

SNF now accounts for almost half of global polyacrylamide production, which underscores the effectiveness of this innovation and investment policy.
